COMMULIGION, THE

ENEMY UNVIELED

1. While the term “Rights” do not appear in the Bible, the concept do exists in

certain Scriptures:

a. The idea of keeping God’s Commandments as the “whole of humanity” tells

us that we are we are we are we are what the Law of God demands of us. Then our Rights are

what the Law gives to us. Ecclesiastes 12:13,14.

b. The idea of owing man what the Law demands, shows that man’s “Right to”

is expressed by the Law of God. Romans 13:8-10.

c. The idea of taking away taking away taking away taking away from man by breaking God’s Law shows that man’s

Rights are found in the Law of God. James 2:8-12.

2. This clearly shows that the Rights of man are found in the Law of God. These

Rights are three major Rights. They are:

1. Thou shalt have no other gods

2. Thou shalt not make any graven images

3. Thou shalt no take God’s name in vain

4. Remember the Sabbath day

5. Honor your father and mother

6. Thou shalt not kill

7. Thou shalt no bear false witness

8. Thou shalt not commit adultery

9. Thou shalt not steal

10. Thou shalt not coveth

3. A proper definition of what is “Rights” is seen in the following statement. Rights

are:

“Divinely required Life-sustaining behavioral codes of Equality under Law.”

4. Rights imply “Freedoms”, because if Rights are to be secured, then Freedoms

must be exercised. The Scriptures’ claim that man can choose expresses

freedom (i.e., freedom of choice). Isaiah 7:14-16; Joshua 24:17.

5. Our basic Freedoms are the following:

a. Freedom of Thought

b. Freedom of Belief

c. Freedom of Conscience

d. Freedom of Choice

e. Freedom of Opinion

f. Freedom of Speech

g. Freedom of Expression

h. Freedom of Movement.

6. The following Scripture is a prophecy about the rise of the American republic.

Revelation 13:11.

“What nation of the New World was in 1798 rising into power, giving promise

of strength and greatness, and attracting the attention of the world? The

application of the symbol admits of no question. One nation, and only one,

meets the specifications of this prophecy; it points unmistakably to the United

States of America.” Ellen G. White, The Great ControversyThe Great ControversyThe Great ControversyThe Great Controversy, p. 440.

7. The two horns like a lamb of the American beast are Republicanism and

Protestantism. Revelation 13:11.

“Republicanism and Protestantism became the fundamental principles of the

nation.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 441.

8. Regarding RepublicanismRepublicanismRepublicanismRepublicanism, we are told that this is the form of Government the

nation of America shall profess.

“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican

Form of Government …” The Constitution of the United States and the The Constitution of the United States and the The Constitution of the United States and the The Constitution of the United States and the

Declaration of IndependenceDeclaration of IndependenceDeclaration of IndependenceDeclaration of Independence, p. 15.

“At the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, Benjamin Franklin was

asked, “What have you wrought?” He answered, “… a Republic, if you can keep

it.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 46.

9. What was the real point about Republicanism? Its essential philosophy was that

all men have equal Rightsequal Rightsequal Rightsequal Rights, and those Rights are inalienableinalienableinalienableinalienable.

“Among the Christian exiles who first fled to America and sought an asylum

from royal oppression and priestly intolerance were many who determined to

established a government upon the broad foundation of civil and religious

liberty. Their views found place in the Declaration of Independence, which sets

forth the great truth that “all men are created equal” and endowed with the

inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness …” Freedom of

religious faith was also granted, every man being permitted to worship God

according to the dictates of his conscience.” Ellen G. White, The Great The Great The Great The Great

ControversyControversyControversyControversy, p. 441.

“[Our] principles [are] founded on the immovable basis of equal rights and

reason.” Thomas Jefferson, to James Sullivan, 1797. ME 9:379to James Sullivan, 1797. ME 9:379to James Sullivan, 1797. ME 9:379to James Sullivan, 1797. ME 9:379.

“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn

around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add “within the limits of the

law” because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the

rights of the individual.” Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Isaac H. Tiffany (1819)Letter to Isaac H. Tiffany (1819)Letter to Isaac H. Tiffany (1819)Letter to Isaac H. Tiffany (1819).

“[The] best principles [of our republic] secure to all its citizens a perfect equality

of rights.” Thomas Jefferson, Reply to the Citizens of Wilmington, 1809. ME Reply to the Citizens of Wilmington, 1809. ME Reply to the Citizens of Wilmington, 1809. ME Reply to the Citizens of Wilmington, 1809. ME

16:33616:33616:33616:336.

10. The real point in the philosophy of Republicanism is that the Rights of man are

inalienableinalienableinalienableinalienable. Here is the meaning of that word.

“INALIENABLEINALIENABLEINALIENABLEINALIENABLE, … Unalienable; that cannot be legally or justly alienated or

transferred to another … All men have certain natural rights which are

inalienable.” Noah Webster, 1828 American Dictionary of the English 1828 American Dictionary of the English 1828 American Dictionary of the English 1828 American Dictionary of the English

LanguageLanguageLanguageLanguage.

InalienableInalienableInalienableInalienable … Incapable of being alienated, taken away, or transferred to

another.” The Lexicon Webster Dictionary Vol.1The Lexicon Webster Dictionary Vol.1The Lexicon Webster Dictionary Vol.1The Lexicon Webster Dictionary Vol.1, p. 484.

11. The meaning of our Rights being “inalienable” or not being able to be

transferred to another, is that these Right did not come from man, but from

outsideoutsideoutsideoutside of man and are thus alienalienalienalien; that is, they come from God.

“… the [religious] right was … God-given (hence inalienable) …” David Barton,

Original IntentOriginal IntentOriginal IntentOriginal Intent, p. 44.

“… the free exercise of religion was their inalienable God-given right. IbidIbidIbidIbid, p.

46.

12. Clearly put by Mr. Kennedy, Rights are given by God.

“The rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the

hand of God.” President John F. Kennedy in his Inaugural Address, 1961.

Quoted in, Church And StateChurch And StateChurch And StateChurch And State, p. 56.

13. Since freedoms or liberties are the natural results of Rights, as Rights are God-

given, so are freedoms.

“And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure if we have lost the only firm

basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of

God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath?” Jefferson, quoted

in, David Barton, Original IntentOriginal IntentOriginal IntentOriginal Intent, p. 46.

14. We can now summarize that RepublicanismRepublicanismRepublicanismRepublicanism as the founding philosophy of the

United States of America, means the following.

i. All men have equal Rights and Freedoms.

ii. Rights and Freedoms are Inalienable/God-given.

15. But we are told that America will speak as a dragondragondragondragon. Revelation 13:11.

16. The dragon is Satan the devil. Revelation 12:9.

17. What does it mean for a Republican system to speak like the devil? It must

ceaseceaseceasecease being Republican by violating man’s basic Rights. Here is the voice of the

dragon violating Jesus’ basic Rights.

a. The Right to Private Property violated. Matthew 4:3.

b. The Right to Life assaulted . Matthew 4:5,6.

c. The Religious Right assaulted. Matthew 4:8,9.

18. And here is the U.S.A. violating man’s three basic Rights.

a. The Religious Right assaulted. Revelation 13:12.

b. The Right to Life assaulted. Revelation 13:15.

c. The Right to Private Property assaulted. Revelation 13:16,17.

19. Now, what type of Government is antiantiantianti----Rights Rights Rights Rights or abolishesabolishesabolishesabolishes the Rights and

Freedoms of man?

CommunismCommunismCommunismCommunism. This philosophy of Government views the Rights and Freedoms

of man as originating in human social conhuman social conhuman social conhuman social consciousness sciousness sciousness sciousness which is always temporary,

thus to Communism, the Rights and Freedoms of man are notnotnotnot inalienable or

God-given. Observe what we are told:

“Law, morality, religion, are to him [the proletariat] so many bourgeois

prejudices, behind which lurk in ambush just as many bourgeois interests.”

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, The Communist ManifestoThe Communist ManifestoThe Communist ManifestoThe Communist Manifesto, p. 92.

20. The Right of Private Property is Right of Private Property is Right of Private Property is Right of Private Property is abolished by Communism.

“In this sense, the theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single

sentence: Abolition of private property. We communists have been

reproached with the desire of abolishing the right of personally acquiring

property as the fruit of a man’s own labour, which property is alleged to be the

ground work of all personal freedom, activity and independence.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 96.

“But if selling and buying disappears, free selling and buying disappears also …

You are horrified at our intending to do away with private property.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p.

98.

“Nevertheless, in the most advanced countries, the following will be pretty

generally applicable:

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public

purposes.…

2. Abolition of all right of inheritance.

3. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 104.

21. Religious liberty, religion and freedoms are Religious liberty, religion and freedoms are Religious liberty, religion and freedoms are Religious liberty, religion and freedoms are abolished by Communism.

“And the abolition of this state of things is called by the bourgeois, abolition of

individuality and freedom! And rightly so.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 98.

“The ideas of religious liberty and freedom of conscience, merely gave

expression to the sway of free competition within the domain of knowledge …

There are, besides, eternal truths, such as Freedom, Justice, etc., that are

common to all states of society. But Communism abolishes eternal truths, it

abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new

basis; it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experience.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p.

103.

22. The pragmatic anti–religious nature of Communism borders on being against the

Religious RightReligious RightReligious RightReligious Right.

“We must combat religious—that is the ABC of all materialism, and

consequently of Marxism. But Marxism is not a materialism which has stopped

at the ABC. Marxism goes further. It says: We must know how to combat

religion, and in order to do so we must explain the source of faith and religion

in a materialist way. The combating of religion cannot be confined to abstract

ideological preaching, and it must not be reduced to such preaching. It must be

linked up with the concrete practice of the class movement, which aims at

eliminating the social roots of religion.” V.I. Lenin, On ReligionOn ReligionOn ReligionOn Religion, p. 21.

“No educational book can eradicate religion from the minds of the masses who

are crushed by capitalist hard labour, and who are at the mercy of the blind

destructive forces of capitalism, until those masses themselves learn to fight this

root of religion, fight the rule of capital in all its forms, in a united, organized,

planned and conscious way.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 22.

“A Marxist must be a materialist , i.e., an enemy of religion, but a dialectical

materialist, i.e., one who treats the struggle against religion not in an abstract

way, not on the basis of remote, purely theoretical, never varying preaching, but

in a concrete way, on the basis on the class struggle which is going on in practice and is educating the masses more and better than anything else could.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p.

23.

23. Freedom of opinion is not for all Freedom of opinion is not for all Freedom of opinion is not for all Freedom of opinion is not for all only for “sanitized” members of the

Communist Party. Thus no equal Rights and Freedoms for all. Rights and

Freedoms are thus infringedinfringedinfringedinfringed.

“We allow freedom of opinion within the Party, but to certain limits,

determined by freedom of grouping; we are not obliged to go hand in hand

with active preachers of views that are repudiated by the majority of the party.”

IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 25.

24. Rights and Freedoms in religion Rights and Freedoms in religion Rights and Freedoms in religion Rights and Freedoms in religion are restricted to a private affair, thus infringed.

But they are fought against openly.

“The party of the proletariat demands that the state should declare religion a private matter, but does not regard the fight against the opium of the people,

the fight against religious superstitions, etc., as a “private matter.”” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 25.

25. As God, His Law, and its morality are rejected, so the Rights and Freedoms of

man, that originate in God’s Law, so the Rights and Freedoms of man, that

originate in God’s Law, are rejected as alienable alienable alienable alienable and violableviolableviolableviolable. This is the

nature of Communism.

“In what sense do we reject ethics, reject morality? In the sense given to it by

the bourgeoisie, who based ethics on God’s commandments. On this point we,

of course, say that we do not believe in God, and that we know perfectly well

that the clergy, the landowners and bourgeoisie invoked the name of God so as

to further their own interests as exploiters. Or, instead of basing ethics in the

commandments of morality, on the commandments of God, they based it in

idealist or semi-idealist phrases, which always amounted to something very

similar to God’s commandments. We reject any morality based on

extra-human and extra-class concepts. We say that this is deception, dupery,

stultification of the worker and peasants in the interests of the landowners and

capitalists. We say that our morality is entirely subordinated to the interests of

the proletariat’s class struggle. Our morality stems from the interests of the

class struggle of the proletariat.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 58.

“We do not believe in an eternal morality, and we expose the falseness of all

the fables about morality.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 61.

26. Communism sees Law as a product of social consciousness and enforced by the

State. This means that Rights and Freedoms are created by human social

consciousness, and are thus notnotnotnot inalienableinalienableinalienableinalienable and inviolableinviolableinviolableinviolable.

“Closely linked to it is another form of social consciousness known as law. It is

the sum of principles and rules of human conduct endorsed by the state. Law

is the expression of the will of the ruling class and is strictly enforced by the

state through its extensive machinery of coercion.” ABC of Dialectical and ABC of Dialectical and ABC of Dialectical and ABC of Dialectical and

Historical MaterialismHistorical MaterialismHistorical MaterialismHistorical Materialism, p. 367.

27. Communism sees good and bad, and morality as not expressions of man’s

Rights; they are all created by social consciousness, thus the Rights and

Freedoms of man are created by human social consciousness, and are

imposed, thus they are not inalienable or inviolable.

“There are principles of conduct and criteria of good and bad, of right and

wrong, which are observed and shared by tradition and are imposed by custom,

public opinion and the authority of society as a whole or of a particular group.

The totality of such principles of conduct and the ideas of what human conduct

ought to be constitute the form of social consciousness known as ethics or morality.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 367.

28. To Communism morality is not eternal, immutable or from moral law, thus it

abolishes Rights and Freedoms as coming from society, thus they are not

inalienable or inviolable.

“Marxists deny that there is any eternal morality resting on immutable dogmas.

They repudiate all attempts to impose on men a moral dogma of any sort as

eternal, final, immutable moral law, under the pretext that the realm of morality

has principles of its own which exist forever. Marxists maintain that every

moral theory, every totality of principles of conduct is, in the last analysis, the

product of society’s concrete economic conditions.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 379.

29. An example of anti-Rights civil legislation is seen in the old Soviet Union civil

codes. No private property rights exist by legislation, thus Communism is aaaantintintinti----

rights legislationsrights legislationsrights legislationsrights legislations.

“A necessary consequence of this principle is the existence of ownership by

citizens of the money they have earned and of the property they have acquired

with that money. This property has long been called personal property in

Soviet law. It differs in principle from private property in that its source is labor

in the socialist economy. When one has this feature of personal property in

mind, it is usual to say that it is derived from socialist property. Another and no

less important distinction between personal and private property is its purpose,

which is to satisfy the citizen’s material and cultural needs, and not to organize

capitalist production. In other words, personal property has a consumer

purpose, which has found clear expression in the definition of the range of

objects of personal property rights given in the law; hence, too, the

impermissibility of using personal property to derive unearned income … The

fundamentals (Art.25) established this provision in clear and unambiguous

form: ‘the personal property of citizens may not be used to derive unearned

income.’ The Republican codes not only reproduced this fundamental

provision but also drew the necessary conclusions from it. All of them stipulate

that the property that is systematically used by the owner to derive unearned

income may be confiscated without compensation by a court decision and pass

to the possession of the state.” Ye. Fleishits, and A. Makovsky, The CivilThe CivilThe CivilThe Civil

Codes of the Soviet Codes of the Soviet Codes of the Soviet Codes of the Soviet RepublicsRepublicsRepublicsRepublics, pp. 72,73.

“Personal property can be confiscated as a consequence of deriving unearned

income from it, only if such unlawful use is “systemic,” i.e. repeated or

protracted.” IbidIbidIbidIbid, p. 73.

30. Communism has no genuinegenuinegenuinegenuine freedom of speech, thus antiantiantianti----freedom legislation freedom legislation freedom legislation freedom legislation

generally exist, though carefully worded to prevent outrage.

“But freedom of the press, like freedom of speech, is not seen by the Soviet

people as meaning that anyone can engage in thoughtless and unwarranted

censuring, in maliciously defaming everything and everyone. Freedom of the

press, they firmly believe, can be exercised only in the interests of the country

and the people, not to their detriment.” V. Koldayev, Soviet Citizens.: Their Soviet Citizens.: Their Soviet Citizens.: Their Soviet Citizens.: Their

Rights and DutiesRights and DutiesRights and DutiesRights and Duties, p. 43.

31. In all this we have just seen that CommunismCommunismCommunismCommunism is a system of government that has

antiantiantianti----Rights and Freedoms legislation and operationsRights and Freedoms legislation and operationsRights and Freedoms legislation and operationsRights and Freedoms legislation and operations. It has:

a. Anti-rights and Freedoms laws and operations.

b. It attacks man’s Rights and Freedoms by law.

c. It is the voice of the dragon against men’s Rights.

d. It is totally the very opposite of Republicanism.

32. Thus the right term for anti-rights civil legislation that outlaw all religions all religions all religions all religions is

CommuatheismCommuatheismCommuatheismCommuatheism. This is:

a. CommuCommuCommuCommu from Communism, that is, anti-Rights civil legislation.

b. AtheismAtheismAtheismAtheism, that is, the belief and practice that there is no God.

33. But the Bible tells us of anti-Rights civil legislation that will enforceenforceenforceenforce religion,

religious dogma and religious practice. Revelation 13:12,15,16,17.

34. This system is a type of governmenttype of governmenttype of governmenttype of government that enactsenactsenactsenacts anti-Rights civil legislation

enforcing religion. It is called the “Image of the BeastImage of the BeastImage of the BeastImage of the Beast.” Revelation 13:15.

35. But a good term to identify the Image of the BeastImage of the BeastImage of the BeastImage of the Beast for what it is, that is, a type

of government enacting antiantiantianti----Rights civil legislationRights civil legislationRights civil legislationRights civil legislation that enforcesenforcesenforcesenforces religion and

a. CommuCommuCommuCommu from Communism, that is anti-Rights civil legislation.

b. LigionLigionLigionLigion from the word ReligionReligionReligionReligion which is a body of spiritual teachings and

36. Thus the Image of the Beast Image of the Beast Image of the Beast Image of the Beast or CommuligionCommuligionCommuligionCommuligion is a government enacting antigovernment enacting antigovernment enacting antigovernment enacting anti----

37. A proper translative interpretation of Revelation 13:15 will be:

“And he [government/congress] was given [by God’s permissive will] to give

[legislative and executive] life unto the image of the beast [Commuligion], that

the image of the beast should both speak [by law] and cause [by

enforcement, coercion and persecution] that as many as would not [obedience]

worship [Commuligion] the image of the beast should be killed [loose their

Right to Life].” Revelation 13:15

38. The real evilevilevilevil of worshipping the Image of the Beast or Commuligion needs to

be understood.

a. The worship obedience worship obedience worship obedience worship obedience of the CommuCommuCommuCommu from Communism, is to rejerejerejerejectctctct that

b. To worship obey the religiousreligiousreligiousreligious part of Commuligion, is to keep the Mark of

propagator, the PopePopePopePope, above the God of the Sabbath, whom the Pope, by his
